The Blues Summit - Devon Allman - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

In the first 20 years of his recording career, Devon Allman has made one thing very clear. He doesn’t stand still. As an artist and performer, he is always on the move, eager to stretch his boundaries, forever on the lookout for new sources of inspiration and new musicians to collaborate with. That ethos has driven him to continually create and move on. That’s why his discography to date – though it includes a number of solo albums – also shows releases with Honeytribe (with whom he debuted in 2006) and southern rock supergroup Royal Southern Brotherhood as well as with the Allman Betts Band. The resumé is a work in progress, yet one that is already worthy of the musical legacy handed down to him by his late father Gregg Allman of the legendary Allman Brothers Band. His new project The Devon Allman Blues Summit, is a powerhouse gathering of blues legends that promises to electrify the stage. Once again, it’s a decidedly collaborative effort that sees Allman’s core band augmented by big-time players like Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, Larry McCray, Sierra Green, Jimmy Hall and Robert Randolph. Yet this time around, Allman displays an uncanny willingness to share the spotlight. He does more than feature his guests on this session. On roughly half of the album’s ten tracks, he lets them take center stage. And since most of his guests are big-time blues players, we wind up with
